Why the fuck is everyone in the comments jumping to conclusions and already slamming Jay? Everything is alleged and the accuser is anonymous. Let there be a ruling by the judge then we can make conclusions no?
He is a public figure who chose to associate himself with a sex pest...
Cope
Has it occurred to you that child molesters might not be explicitly informing everyone they know about their crimes?
I had a classmate in high school who got caught in a pedo sting operation. He himself was more of an acquaintance, but we had a mutual friend I was very close to, and we all hung out together on many occasions over the years.
Should we both be getting accused too because we were friends with that guy? Fuck off with that nonsense, how the fuck were we supposed to know?
Do you know what a diddy party is?
Do you know history of us celebrity culture that glorified raping early teens girls?
You are arguing plausible deniability which fair but nobody is buying it.
When did jayz started dating beyence?
Hmmm, the man clearly like that jail bait.
What the fuck are you rape apologists even smoking. Diddy literally has lyrics about abusing girls. It’s never been a secret - his parties have been infamous from the beginning. This revisionism that it’s not is ridiculous. Get a real hobby 😂
Never was a fan of these pests but I am sure they coming for me hip hop artists too...
Really had to cut a lot of rockers too.
This shit is disgusting, why did we ever pay them money?
Another reason why piracy is justified. These people are pests, deny them income.
From the entertainer 50 cent.
"Jay in hibernation he ain’t coming outside till this shit with puff blow over, no brunch, no lunch, No dinner. LOL 😆"
Please let's stop pretending when you hang out with pedophiles on the regular that it is just happenstance.
I am sure Jay slept with less underage girls than others during Diddy parties. In fact, I heard he hardly did it more than anyone else. I would say he slept with children the least out of all the other pedophiles.
I'm not gonna slam, but it's disappointing to hear anyway. I never idolized him, but still thought he was a good dude.
>"Good dude"
>Billionaire
Pick one.
How can you be disappointed when you don't even know if it's true?
I can actually explain why. Refraining from judgment causes the human brain to experience cognitive strain, so people tend to settle on a judgment even without evidence, in order to reduce the emotional stress caused by being undecided between two extreme possibilities. We feel insecure when we haven’t yet made a decision, because we are exposed to attacks from both sides. By aligning ourselves with one side, we gain allies and also gain the ability to disregard the humanity of our enemies. This is a universal weakness to human rationality, and lawyers are experts at exploiting it.
It's disappointing just to hear an allegation. How is that confusing for you?
Because the allegation is either true or false. Either it happened, or it didn't. If it didn't happen, then there's no reason for you to be disappointed in Jay Z.
And what stops him from still being a good dude? It's like you're having trouble wrapping your head around this being simply an accusation. You're basically saying everyone who associated themselves with Diddy is a bad person without knowing the depths of their relationship.
I have no judgements either way so far. Just saying it's disappointing to hear an allegation like this
Your grievances should be directed to the allegations alone and not the one being accused.
Replace Jay-Z with Trump and tell me if you feel the same.
You hang out with pedos, you get painted with the same brush.
Because he's a multi-Billionaire, and there is no ethical way of making a billion dollars, let alone multiple.
You know that clip from Office Space where the neighbor is asked what he would do with a million dollars and the answer is "two chicks at the same time"? What happens if you have 1000x that much money?
4 chicks at the same time
